| Thank you for your... Thank you for your replies. One theory I had was that it was originally natural finish, someone ordered a black one, the factory didn't have any black 72" in stock so they just painted a natural black after badge was mounted....but...the only hole I can find in that theory is that the badge paint seems different than the paint on the bench- almost like it was suppose to be a black badge. That could possibly be that the badge is metal and the bench is wood. I looked at areas that were nicked down to the natural wood with a magnify glass ... | |||||

| I have the small end table,... I have the small end table, vintage, and it has a Knoll label. I found another 36" (I think) white melamine topped tulip dining table at auction with two tulip chairs. The chairs had labels but the table did not. I assume it is Knoll but I've seen many pedestals at auctions with the same profile and dimensions but with non-Saarinen tops on them. I don't know if these are Saarinen bases with replaced tops or if the base was just widely copied. I think probably the latter. I own four bases now, two that had throwaway tops and ... | |||||

| ... but I did loose some money when I sold them several years later. However, I do regret not buying a plastic picnic set designed by Helen von Boch in 1971 and produced by Villeroy & Boch. I saw it at a fleamarket shortly before it closed but I didn't buy it. Why? - I simply forgot. A set like that usually sells for about $1000/800 euro. Oh yes, and in the early days when I started collecting, a guy phoned me and offered me a large amount of green Verner Panton fabric, a colour he rarely used in his fabric designs. I said no thanks as I didn't like the colour ... | |||||

| ... ceiling. I very much doubt that the stained oak ceiling is truly white, and I rather think that you'll end up with a 'sandwich' of the floor and the ceiling in the rest of the space. I'd consider wrapping the wall color onto the ceiling or perhaps finding a tone from the oak that you can utilize to tie it together better. You have mentioned orange and blue quite a bit. On the color wheel these are directly opposite each other. ie: complimentary colors. These will give the room a very bold feel. You want subtle color, so I wouldn't do a straight complimentar ... | |||||

| DM escaped post modernism more intact... than did what you call case study modernism (Eames, Mies, Saarinen, etc.) Post modernists like Venturi found case study modernism lacking in complexity and contradiction, especially contradiction. They hung their ornaments on case study modernism to get away from some of the sterility and humorlessness of case study modernism. They tended not to do this sort of thing to DM. Why? IMHO it was because Danish Modernism's Frank Lloyd Wrightish warmth of materials made it less sterile and more earthy. In turn the conceit of ... | |||||

| "Thay tweetie, thayve me a theet" | 1 Relevance | 21 years ago | crankyd | General discussion | |
| "Thay tweetie, thayve me a theet" I'm going to go with the bastardized pronuciation. Assuming: 1. Mies spoke English better than he spoke Spanish or Castillian or Catalan or whu-tever it's called. 2. Mies named it as well. If so, he more than likely didn't go with the lispy (yet correct) pronunciation. I just can't picture him saying "Barth-e-lo-nuh." Unless he did, of course. Nevermind. P.S.- you haven't lived unitl you've witnessed a native-born Barcelonan queen have a hissy fit...and I do mean "hiss"...so many s's that she sounds like she sprung a leak! A ... | |||||

| [Sorry, Gerrit I didn't mean to suggest that no designers were responding to the request!] So, that is good advice, or at least a useful description of the most valid approach to the design problem? ( Some American laymen will not know to distinguish between the uses of the word "lamp," which in professional practice is the actual light-emitting device (laymen call it a "bulb"), as opposed to the appliance or fixture that incorporates that device.) "Start with what is available, then fabricate what you have to, to complete the object"? | |||||
| Why not another question. | 1 Relevance | 21 years ago | Joyce | General discussion | |
| Why not another question. Dear Koen, Your observations about "cradle to cradle" are very interesting. I didn't see things from those perspectives. The downcylcing of fibres as well as plastics, the marketing aspect of their firm and the secrecy of research. For my part, as a student of design, I was just happy to see that it is possible to design with a broader conscience of the world around us. Here comes my next question. What would you say to designer that is fresh out of school and who doesn't want to be responsible for the creation of the next gizmo? Ho ... | |||||
| rare Danish cradle | 1 Relevance | 21 years ago | NULL NULL | General discussion | |
| rare Danish cradle Hi, all--new here but have been collecting awhile. I go to a lot of local auctions and have gotten some real finds. Probably my best ever was a rare cradle by Danish designer Nanna ditzel. It was at a really snooty, somewhat shady auction house that I don't normally patronize but happened to go this once. I spotted the cradle in the back with garden junk piled in it. There were some dealers there who buy mod stuff so I didn't want to look too interested init. I looked as closely as I dared for a mark but didn't see anything. The light ... | |||||
| Thanks, guys! | 1 Relevance | 21 years ago | sharplinesoldtimes | General discussion | |
| Thanks, guys! I've read each of all these replies as soon as they were posted. It's been quite exiting to see what such a "simple" question has received of interesting comments, some on topic, some not but nevermind - it's all good and sometimes even quite funny. I didn't want to give feedback too quick since I wanted replies without my influence first. No decision has been made yet. I'm personally a huge fan of Scandinavian design history, esp. 1940-1970, and here I think only Finland can compete with my own country, Denmark, regarding the similarity betwee ... | |||||
